Red: Lower suspension arms
Green: Steering arm
Yellow: Pull rod
Blue: Strange upper suspension arms??
Can anyone explain the blue ones?

Both teams (+ AT) exploit the same loophole, which is likely to be closed, perhaps even during the season. FOM representatives mentioned that now tech regs can be changed without teams' consent not only for safety reasons but to bring the letter of the law more in-line with the spirit of the law. This is a prime example where a loophole allows designs that directly contravene the very aim of 2022 regs.
If you mean the upright winglet, Mercedes is doing the same thing there.Pandamasque wrote: ↑23 Feb 2022, 14:09Both teams (+ AT) exploit the same loophole, which is likely to be closed, perhaps even during the season.

That's why I said BOTH teams + Alpha Tauri.scheffers wrote: ↑23 Feb 2022, 14:11If you mean the upright winglet, Mercedes is doing the same thing there.

Perhaps in straight ahead mode, the downforce is bled off using turbulence from the converging strakes. In cornering mode the convergence on one side is blanked off and the tunnels can operate fully.

May it be important to extracting performance out of their chosen beam wing concept?godlameroso wrote: ↑23 Feb 2022, 14:28Seems to me they sacrificed a few mm of diffuser volume to sculpt the walls.
Unbelievably short wheelbase. It will be good at Monaco hairpin
